The cleaning was that good not just for the engine bay, but the exterior too, the camera couldn't focus and adjusted it's light settings due to the brightness!!
Husky mate, what you doing at 35mph, that's not like you? There must have been somebody in front of you, so I'd be thankfull it wasn't worse than 35mph, although I feel your pain and lucky if you can avoid the 3 points in my book. I'd pay the fine, do the course and write it off to a bad day.
I am quite pleased my speedo is out of sync, my digital speedo is closer to the "real" speed limit and my GPS is of course the most accurate, so I'm led to believe.
The strange thing about that camera van. I have one of the latest snoopers in my car and it was activated and running fine, no bleeps, especially a laser beep (it goes frantic as laser's!!). Darren B also had a speed camera detector, it failed to go off as well.
1. They have new lasers that both our units did not register the gun.
2. It was not running when we went past?
Clearly it was running when you went past.... a great pain in the ass if you ask me. I earnt 3 points 6 months ago doing 58 in a 40. Bit of a woopsy that one. Although thats the only 3 points I've had in the last 10 years, so I can't be too upset about it.
